Symbotic’s vision is automation at large scale, carried by physical AI. It starts in the warehouse, where robots see, decide, and move goods at extraordinary speed and density — and extends to new platforms and applications still taking shape. As that vision grows, so does the challenge: turning intelligence into physical action through the power, sensing, compute, harnesses, and electrical integration that bring Physical AI to life.
Symbotic is seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to drive electrical design for automated material-handling robots and related platforms. In this role you will lead the conceptualization, architecture, design, analysis, fabrication, integration, and test of complex electrical systems — not only PCBAs and cables, but the full bot-level electrical system — from concept through production.
You will set technical direction for other electrical designers, work through Symbotic’s Product Development Process (PDP), and partner with PLM and contract manufacturers so designs can be built, qualified, and released at volume.
The Electrical Engineering – Bot Hardware team is part of Symbotic’s Hardware Engineering organization and develops the electrical hardware that powers and connects our robotic systems. Our team designs PCB-based electronics, harnesses, and electrical interfaces that support power distribution, sensing, compute, communications, and control across our automation platforms. We partner closely with mechanical, firmware, test, manufacturing, and other engineering teams to integrate these designs into reliable, manufacturable robotic products and support them from development through production.
